SOW UNCOMMON SEEDS EXPECTANTLY | 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE by Mike Murdock

SOW UNCOMMON SEEDS EXPECTANTLY

You Will Reap What You Sow.

Scriptures prove it. “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap” (Galatians 6:7).

Here Are 71 Facts You Should Know About Sowing Your Way to One Thousand Times More…The Journey of the Seed!

1. Every Person On Earth Understands The Law Of Sowing And Reaping. The farmer stands as a monument to the powerful law of reproduction. When you sow a kernel of corn, you will produce corn. When you sow a tomato Seed, you will produce a tomato. When a man plants his Seed into his wife, he will produce a child.
2. Seed-Faith Is The Principle That You Can Produce Anything You Want In Your Future From Something You Are Holding Today. That’s the principle! You can decide the harvest you desire and plant a specific Seed toward that harvest.
3. Someone Close To You Who Is In Trouble Is Potential Soil For Your Seed. Your Seed of love, time, encouragement, prayers and finances. Jesus

96 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

explained that when you have done something good to others, you were making it happen for Him.

4. Your Seed Is Anything That Blesses Somebody. It is anything that improves the life of someone you love or know. Your Seed is whatever you do that makes another smile, laugh, feel good or satisfied. Your Seed is anything that is making someone’s life much easier.

Your Seed is anything you know, possess or can do for another that increases their joy.

Thoughts are Seeds.

Love is a Seed.

Time is a Seed.

Patience is a Seed.

Mercy is a Seed.

Kindness is a Seed.

Money is a Seed.

Your prayers are Seeds.

Thankfulness is a Seed.

Your Seed is anything you have received from God that He wants you to impart into someone else.

5. The Law Of Sowing And Reaping Was Intended To Birth Encouragement, Hope, And Excitement About A Harvest. “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season, we snail reap, if we faint not” (Galatians 6:9).
6. Your Seed Is Any Tool God Has Given You To Create Your Future. Look at David. He complained about the armor of Saul. But, he had another tool—the slingshot. It was simple. Overlooked. Ignored by other soldiers. But, it was the Seed that God had placed in his hand. It was his supernatural tool! God always leaves you with something. What is it? Find

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK ■ 97

it.

7. God Always Gives You Something To Begin Your Future. David had a slingshot to create a victory. The widow had a meal to invest into a man of God. You have something! Look for it again!
8. There Will Never Be A Day In Your Life That You Have Nothing. You may be impoverished like the widow. Many think she had nothing. She had something—powerful, incredible and rare. She had the ability to discern a man of God. She had the ability to listen to a man of God. She had the ability to obey a man of God.
9. A Little Seed Can Birth A Huge Harvest. Acorns become oak trees. Babies become champions. You are a living collection of Seeds. You contain a million tiny, golden, passionate Beginnings for change.
10. Something You Have Been Given By God Will Create Anything Else You Have Ever Been Promised By God. Tenacity in the woman who hemorrhaged for dozen years, created the miracle of touching of the hem of Jesus’ garment. The loaves and fishes of a small lad created enough for the multitude. Stop looking at what others possess. Instead, start thanking God for something He has already given you.
11. Every Seed Contains A Billion, Tiny, Golden, Passionate Beginnings Of Miracles. Someone counted 470 Seeds in a single papaya. My longtime friend, Dwight Thompson told me that one papaya Seed produces a plant that contains ten papayas. Imagine the Seeds if every papaya in one plant contained 470! Ten papaya Seeds containing 470 Seeds is 4,700 papaya Seeds! Now, imagine replanting those 4,700 papaya Seeds to create 4,700 papaya plants.

Let’s round it off. Five thousand papaya plants

98 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

containing 5,000 Seeds on each plant is 25 million papaya Seeds! Incredible! Think about it for a moment. One papaya Seed can produce a plant with almost 5,000 Seeds. Those 5,000 Seeds produce another 5,000 plants that contain together (if all the numbers were accurate) 25 million more Seeds! Each of those Seeds contain millions of passionate Beginnings for change.

12. You Are A Walking Warehouse Of Remarkable Seeds. Most people have no idea what they contain! They waste thousands of hours studying their losses instead of taking inventory of what they have been given. They look at what they’ve not instead of what they’ve got.

Listen carefully. It is rarely destructive or devastating to take an inventory of all the things you need and desire. But, it is tragic beyond words if you fail to recognize your Seeds—what you have received from God to plant into the lives of others. Stop focusing on losses. Look longer, closer, and thankfully at something you have already been given and presently have.

Moses could not talk well. But, God turned his focus away from his need and invited him to acknowledge the rod in his hand.

His rod was his Seed.

13. Those Around You Are The Soil Designed To Receive Your Seeds. “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who all of the household of faith’ (Galatians 6:10).
14. Something You Already Possess Is Your Key To Your Future. It may be knowledge, money, skills or ideas, insights and concepts. But, you already have enough to create your future. It will launch the One Thousand Times More.
15. You Often May Need Someone To Ignite Your Faith To Unlock The Seeds You Already Possess. The

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK ■ 99

widow needed Elijah. Without others around you to motivate you, encourage you and unlock something in your faith—your Seeds will go unplanted. Your harvest will never be experienced. That’s why obedience is so necessary. It links you with the right people, who unleash your faith.

16. Everything You Have Was Given To You By God. Don’t become cocky over tithing your small amount of ten percent. Your entire paycheck came from God! Your eyesight came from God! Your hearing came from God! Your health came from God! Your intelligence came from God! Your favor from others came from God! You don’t have a thing that God did not give you.
17. When You Let Go Of What Is In Your Hand, God Will Let Go Of What Is In His Hand. When the small lad released the loaves and fishes into the hands of Jesus, Jesus released back into his loaves and fishes the multiplication began … miracle. And they picked up several baskets later!
18. When You Keep What Is In Your Hand, God Will Keep What Is In His Hand. If the widow had withheld from the man of God, she would have starved. The Windows of Blessing close when you close your bowels of compassion and you stop sowing Seeds of faith.
19. If You Keep What You Presently Have, That Is The Most It Will Ever Be. When you sow it, it is the least it will ever be. This is one of the most vital principles you must understand in unleashing One Thousand Times More. Releasing what you have is the only evidence of you faith that God will provide for you.
20. Everything Within You Is A Seed Someone Has Sown Into You, With Or Without Your Permission. Think back. Your parents sowed their love, attention and favor into you. Thousands of dollars have been

100 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

poured into you from others when you were too small, too ignorant or too young to recognize it. Your teachers taught you the alphabet, numbers and how to share. Your education was a Seed into your life from every teacher.

21. The Prophet Elijah Proved The Principle Of Seed-Faith To The Widow Of Zarephath. She was impoverished and at the door of death. Her son was about to die. They had reached their last meal. But, the man of God showed up. He sowed the Seed of Truth and Faith regarding this principle—she was miraculously supplied with food for the rest of the famine because of her Seed. The prophet told her she would never lack if she sowed her Seed of Obedience. It happened.
22. The Promise Of One Thousand Times More Can Only Occur When A Seed Of Obedience Has Been Planted. Seeds of faith, kindness, finances, and love. Everything you have can produce a future. The One Thousand Times More is a harvest. But, there will be a specific Seed that sets it in motion.

 You must learn to sow.

 You must learn to sow Uncommon Seeds.

 You must learn to sow with great expectation.

That’s the mystery behind the One Thousand Times More!

23. Your Seed Is Something Little That Can Become Huge Tomorrow. The little slingshot of David was the golden scepter that brought him to kingship. Something ridiculous today is often revolutionary tomorrow.
24. Your Seed Is The Only Proof You Have Mastered Greed. Men hoard. Satan steals. God has the nature of giving. Giving is the only cure for greed. Your Seed is the proof that you have mastered hoarding,

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK ■ 101

selfishness and greed.

25. Some Seed In Your Present Will Soon Explode Into Something Magnificent In Your Future. Picture the tiny lad sitting at the piano, practicing over and over his music. His family is agitated, his teacher is impatient, but one morning thousands open a newspaper to find he’s the leading pianist of his country. His endorsement is sought. Millions buy his tapes. Why? Something small in his present became magnificent in his future.
26. When You Increase The Size Of Your Seed, You Increase The Size Of Your Harvest. “But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully” (2 Corinthians 9:6).
27. A Seed Of Nothing Guarantees A Season Of Nothing. Years ago, the Holy Spirit spoke to me to plant a beautiful Mercedes into the life of another. I was angry at this person. I refused. I lost A Thousand Times More. I’ve wondered about that many times. If a Seed of Something can create something, it is quite obvious—a Seed of Nothing will create a Season of Nothing in your life.
28. Your Seed Must Be Comparable To The Harvest You Are Desiring. You cannot plant a Chevrolet and produce a Rolls Royce! You cannot plant a Seed of $1.00 and expect to be a millionaire 30 days later. Your Seed, the soil, and time has everything to do with the size of your harvest.
29. Your Seed Will Shorten The Season Of Now. Are you going through a trial? When you plant a Seed, you shorten the present season. You see, your Seed is a part of your present that you transfer and move into your future. Your Seed is birthing change.
30. When You Get Involved With God’s Dream, He Will

102 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

Get Involved With Your Dream. That’s the power of sowing. You create a Covenant. Think of a tiny Seed that enters into a Covenant with the soil. Within weeks, they have cracked a concrete slab!! That’s the power of Two…the Covenant. The widow invested in the work of God, Elijah. God, then, entered into a covenant with her that she would never lack in the famine. (Read 1 Kings 17.)

31. Nobody Else Can Sow Your Seed For You. Your love, your finances, your mercy toward others. Nobody else can sow your Seeds! That’s why One Thousand Times More is your personal choice! It explains how the poor can become prosperous; the rich can become admired. Nobody can stop your future from birthing —because nobody else is controlling the Seed you are sowing today! Your harvest today is a photograph of your yesterday Seeds.
32. Nobody Can Stop The Harvest Your Seed Has Commanded. Satan tried to stop the best Seed God ever planted, Jesus. Read Matthew 4, the temptations on the Mount. Satan tried repeatedly to stop Jesus from completing the will of the Father. Jesus even wept in the garden later and asked the Father, if possible, to move the Cup of Suffering away from Him. But the Seed of God carried an irreversible, unstoppable harvest—the redemption of mankind. Men did not plant the Seed. It was eternal Seed, holy Seed, righteous Seed.
33. Every Seed Contains An Invisible Instruction. You cannot see it. It is invisible to your natural eye. Yet, a small watermelon Seed will follow that instruction and produce more watermelons. The tomato Seed will create more tomatoes. Uncertainty does not exist. Each Seed contains a specific, precise and powerful Assignment. The Creator placed it inside. Many small Seeds have even broken through concrete sidewalks

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK ■ 103

—the Assignment was stronger than any Enemy placed around it.

34. When You Give Your Seed A Specific Assignment, Incredible Faith Is Unleashed. The widow was demoralized. But, the man of God gave her a Portrait of Possibility. She was encouraged to plant a Seed so she would not lack. She did. Faith was born. “And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days” (1 Kings 17:15).
35. Your Seed Is Always The Door Out Of Trouble. It was for the widow. It will be for you. It may be information, motivation, or encouragement. But if you will give it an Assignment, it will produce an exit from your present season of chaos.
36. Giving Your Seed A Specific Assignment Will Greatly Affect Your Focus Of Your Faith. Focus matters. The secret of the Law of Success is concentration. The only reason men fail is broken focus. In 2 Samuel 24, David focused his Seed to stop the tragedy. (Over 70,000 people had died in 72 hours.) The Assignment was completed. The plague stopped. David had discovered the secret.
37. Your Seed Is The Only Proof Of Expectation. When the farmer sees his Seed in the soil, expectation arises. That’s why tithing and sowing is sow powerful —it unleashes expectation, the only magnet for One Thousand Times More.

Need does not attract God. Anger does not attract God. Expectation attracts God.

Remember, Seed-Faith Is Sowing What You Have Been Given To Create Something Else You Have Been Promised.

104 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

Seed-Faith Is Letting Go Of The Seen To Create The Unseen.

38. You Are Never Closer To God Then When You Sow A Seed Inspired By A Man Of God. Faith moments are miracle moments. When Elijah saw the face of the widow, she was one meal from death. This is not the kind of crisis that inspires giving. It inspires hoarding!

 When You Enter The Presence Of A Man Of God, You Will Begin To Hear, Feel And Know The Thoughts Of God.

 When You Enter The Presence Of A Man Of God, Anything Within You Unlike God Will Begin To React. It begins looking for an Exit or an Expression.

I was at a service one night when a woman suddenly spoke up. It was harsh, anger and full of vindictiveness. It was unfortunate and sad. Why couldn’t she just sit there? You see, everything unlike God in her required an expression or an exit. She chose the path of expression. Eventually, we had to exit her from the service…against her will!

39. Recognize The Seed You Have Already Received From God. Your Seed is any gift, skill, talent that God has provided for you. He expects you to sow into the lives of others. Don’t hide your Seed. Use it. “A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men” (Proverbs 18:16). Leaders always respond to your difference from others.
40. Recognize With Thankfulness The Seeds Others Are Sowing Into Your Life Today. The widow of 1 Kings 17 was starving and impoverished. Her son was emaciated. They were at the door of death. But, a man of God began to sow Seeds of wisdom, motivation and faith. Each instruction was a Seed.

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK ■ 105

Those instructions shifted her focus to faith. Then, he painted an incredible portrait on her mind—the Portrait of Possibility. He showed her that she would not lack during the entire famine…if she planted and sowed her Seed. Elijah had no money. He had no house. But, he sowed Seeds of Truth into a tormented mind, and her defeated heart became victorious again. His Seed was enough to create a harvest.

41. Sow Into Others What Nobody Else Is Willing To Sow Into Them. When you keep giving others what nobody else will, they will return to your life.
42. Sow Into Others What Others Are Incapable Of Sowing—Time, Kindness, And Love. Few will intercede for your son or daughter. Your Seed of Intercession will produce a harvest nobody else can produce in their life.
43. Sow That Which Is Eternal, And You Will Create An Eternal Bond Of Loyalty With Others. They will celebrate you for a lifetime. Most ministers recognize that people who come to Christ under their ministry have a different loyalty and feeling toward them than anyone else.
44. Sow Without Complaining About It. Unthankfulness is deadly and can destroy the effect of every good Seed.
45. Your Seed Is The Vehicle Into Your Future.
46. Your Seed Is The Only Influence You Have Over Your Future.
47. Your Seed Is A Weapon Against Greed, Fear And Unbelief.
48. Your Seed Forces The Future To Whimper At Your Feet Like A Puppy, Begging For An Instruction.
49. The Seed Of Forgiveness Unleashes One Thousand Time More Mercy Back To You. It makes

106 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

relationships possible. God becomes involved with those who let their forgiveness flow through them like Seeds.

50. The Seed Of Love Unleashes One Thousand Times More Love around you in crisis.
51. The Seed Of Excellence Gets One Thousand Times Higher Excellence Around You. This is revealed when you put quality into every word you say, the tasks you complete, and your boss can know that no one can do it better than you.
52. The Seed Of Diligence Can Unleash One Thousand Times More Favor With The King And Leaders Of Your World. This is immediate attention to the priorities and focus of those in authority over you.
53. The Seed Of Favor Launches One Thousand Times More Favor Toward You. One Day Of Favor Is Worth A Thousand Days Of Labor. You cannot expect it to come until you have planted it like a Seed into the lives of others.
54. The Seed Of Time Into Those You Love Can Unleash One Thousand Times More Love. Whatever You Give Time Toward Is Proof Of What You Value The Most In Life.
55. The Seed Of Finances Can Unleash One Thousand Times More Provision. Money is the god of this world. That’s why the money Seed is more powerful than any other Seed you could plant. When you plant a Money Seed, you’ve given all of you.

It takes all you know to earn your money. So, when you bring a Seed to God, you’re bringing Him the best of your Intelligence.

It takes every relationship in your life to create money flow. So, when you bring an offering God, you are bringing Him the cream and the best of your Relationships.

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK ■ 107

It takes the best hours of your day to create your paycheck. So, when you bring God an offering, you’re bringing Him the best of your Time.

It takes your health and energy to create finances and solve problems. So, when you bring God an offering, you are bringing Him your very body.

That’s the phenomenon of sowing Seeds into the work of God.

Sow Uncommon Seeds Expectantly…and you W I L L see the One Thousand Times More Promise come to pass in your life.

56. Sow What You Have Been Given. Stop complaining about something you do not have. you lack money? Then, use your Time as a Seed. Work for your boss, the local church, or simply baby-sit for someone who is overworked. Use your Time as arrows and Seeds.
57. You Must Sow Whatever You Presently Have. Don’t wait until “my ship comes in.” Begin now. Small Seeds set big miracles in motion.
58. Sow Habitually. Consecutive sowing creates consistent reaping. If you sow erratically, you will reap erratically.
59. Wrap Your Faith Around Your Seed When You Sow. Your Seed is what God multiplies; but, your faith is why He multiplies it.
60. Speak Expectation Into Your Seed. The only pain God knows is to be doubted. His only pleasure is to be believed. Expectation affects the events of your life greatly.

“But without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6).

Many were blind and sick during the days of Jesus.

108 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

But, the blind man that cried out with great expectations…experienced his miracle!

61. Your Words Are Revealing Your Expectations. Stop talking doubt. Stop discussing every success of satan. Never Say Anything That Makes Your Enemies Think They Are Winning.
62. What You Are Talking About The Most Is Revealing What You Are Expecting In Your Life. Walk toward a restaurant table and look and observe the excitement on the countenances! A young mother-to-be is excited. Everybody is listening to her! Why? She is talking about her expectation…her newborn child about to enter her life. Everyone discusses their expectations.
63. What You Are Talking About The Most Is Beginning To Increase In Your Life. Your mouth is a Multiplier. “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof” (Proverbs 18:21). “For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned” (Matthew 12:37).
64. What You Are Thinking About The Most, Your Body Is Moving Toward. Picture yourself watching television. Suddenly a commercial comes on about hamburgers. Then, fried chicken. Within seconds, you have walked into the kitchen and began to browse through the refrigerator. Why? What Happens In Your Mind Begins To Happen In Your Life. Your body will follow the desires of your mind.
65. Expect The Impossible And The Impossible Will Move Quickly Toward You. “For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith” (Mark 11:23).

71. Never Debate With The Holy Spirit About A Seed He Is Instructing You To Sow. Don’t cause Him to withdraw from you. Faith attracts Him. Faith excites Him. Expectation is His pleasure. Do not rob Him of that special moment of obedience that brings the only pleasure He knows.
72. Sow Your Seed In Complete Obedience To The Voice Of The Holy Spirit..With Expectation.
73. Sow With Expectation Of A 1000-fold Return. Deuteronomy 1:11 is not a Dream. It is a fact. God wants you to become One Thousand Times More than you’ve ever been. He wants to show His power through your life.

76. An Uncommon Seed Always Creates An Uncommon Harvest.

How I Broke The Back Of Poverty In My Life!

I broke the back of poverty with an uncommon Seed. A Seed of $1,000. I will never forget it as long as I live. It happened on a telethon. I had just received an incredible royalty check for my song writing of $5,000. I was

ecstatic! You see, I didn’t have anything. Sheets were tacked over my windows. I wanted draperies so bad. I needed a kitchen table with chairs. I had nothing! So, I really had wonderful plans for my $5,000! It was my harvest!

110 ■ 7 KEYS TO ONE THOUSAND TIMES MORE

Suddenly, the Holy Spirit spoke to me while sitting next to some ministers on the telethon.

“I want you to plant a Seed of $1,000.”

Well, I explained to the Holy Spirit, that I was going to buy draperies and a kitchen table with chairs! (It took Him over 45 minutes before I fully obeyed Him.)

The next day, He spoke again. I planted a second Seed of $1,000 as a covenant for my son, Jason. Then the following Sunday morning, the Holy Spirit spoke to me the third time to plant a third Seed of $1,000 at a church in Dallas. That afternoon cannot be explained or described adequately! I was in torment and ecstasy at the same time. I felt a little sick inside because I felt like I’d gotten “carried away.” I knelt at the pastor’s little office that afternoon before service. My heart was quite troubled.

“Holy Spirit, five days ago I had $5,000. Within the last five days, You have spoken to me to plant three Seeds of $1,000. If this is not You and Your plan, stop me now!”

The Holy Spirit explained to me that when He talked to me about a Seed, He had a harvest on His mind. When I opened my hand, He would open His windows. The Seed that would leave my hand would never leave my life —just my hand, and enter into my future where it would multiply!

The miracles began.

That night after Sunday night service, a man walked up. He opened a book featuring rare automobiles. He explained one of the cars in it and said, “There’s only 19 of these in the world. I happen to have Serial Number 1 —the first one they made. It is my pet car. God told me to give it to you!”

The next day, Monday morning, a man walked into my office. He said, “I understand you need a van for your

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK ■ 111

ministry? Order the best one you can buy, and I’ll pay for it.”

Tuesday morning, the next day, a brother called me for lunch. As we sat at the restaurant, he explained that he could not sleep that night. The Holy Spirit kept speaking to him to give me a special Seed of $10,000!

My life has never been the same.

Within a couple of years, almost $400,000 came into my pocket and life from song-writing royalties. It was astounding.

When God talks to you about a Seed, He has a harvest on His mind.

Get your faith up!!
